using drools 5.2.0 flow and rules.<br>
<br>
I have a rule that inserts a new fact as part of the RHS of the rule and<br>
then I'm getting a null pointer exception - stack below. I assume when the<br>
fact is inserted all the rules are evaluated to build up the agenda.<br>
<br>
I've debugged through drools code and found that in ClassFieldReader object1<br>
is null and object2 is my new fact.<br>
<br>
I'm interested in what a JoinNode represents as I think this is what is<br>
being evaluated. I would guess its a join node in the flow but these don't<br>
contain any rules so perhaps not.<br>
<br>
Similar threads here suggest this is a fault in one of the rules but I have<br>
about 100 rules so working out the culprit isn't straightforward.<br>
What I really want to know is if there a way I can find out which rule is<br>
being assessed for the agenda so I check that rule.<br>
